An orderly system whereas we feel we can understand that which we don't understand ...and therefore control our own destination, by ourselves, taking charge.

When
this


                 becomes too much like this,


then people like me feel like there should be some sort of explanation, so I attempted to write this ...


to encourage people today who are not searching in the right direction ...to look up, but also to look down to see what path they are taking.


It's fascinating to look up ...but, there is so much we just can't grasp.  Yet, when we get too down about life, where we feel we can no longer reach up, just realize He came down to us.


Too often we want our own minds to soar, where we can see for ourselves what others could not before see,


and that is not in itself a bad thing.  But often it becomes a trade off, and we leave our hearts behind, not allowing His Spirit to soar within us.



Yes, we need the truth ...and most anyone who can read this blog, should not be bogged down so much that they feel they are prevented from reading the truth.



You don't need to read on with this blog here ...read on, in the Bible.


If you are sincere about the truth ...then you will not feel so threatened or defensive about things like this.



So, you can search the heavens ...but the heavens thought it ought to sought out a few of us, to have a heart to help seek out more than a few.

Why?

"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life."


God has made it abundantly clear what He wants.

What do we want?


If you go to a restaurant and don't order steak, then it would seem absurd to think you'd get angry about not getting steak.


Personally, I never order steak because I look at steak the same way I do about not digesting His Word ...the steaks (stakes) are too high.



If we don't believe in God or in what He said ...that certainly is not God's doing.

If He has prepared a way for us to live ...and we think that it is too restricting, then that is also not His doing.

It's amazing how angry people can get over things they claim they don't believe in.  On a recent 'talk show' the host was hurling massive accusations about God ...which I say, is the opposite of glorifying Him.

Glorifying God, is giving correct report about who God is.

God did much to show us who He is.  God, the Father, did much in leading His people ...then sent His only Son, to also glorify the Father. God inspired, or breathed, the Word to certain people who took much care to write it down ...including the disciples of Jesus, not only writing about when they walked with Jesus, but also as the Holy Spirit led them afterwards.

How many people believe this today?  I'm not counting ...but I'm certainly counting on being among those who God is keeping record of, for His eternal celebration in Heaven.

And then, only then ...will we have an orderly, harmonious system.
